چکیده

Bekenstein proposed that the spectrum of horizon area of quantized black holes must be discrete and uniformly spaced. We examine this proposal in the context of spherically symmetric charged black holes in a general class of gravity theories. By imposing suitable boundary conditions on the reduced phase space of the theory to incorporate the thermodynamic properties of these black holes and then performing a simplifying canonical transformation , we are able to quantize the system exactly. The resulting spectra of horizon area, as well as that of charge are indeed discrete. Within this quanti-zation scheme, near-extremal black holes (of any mass) turn out to be highly quantum objects, whereas extremal black holes do not appear in the spectrum , a result that is consistent with the postulated third law of black hole thermodynamics.

The effect of rule (4) on a series or parallel sequence of quantum mechanical steps is to insure that a conscious observer does not skip a step. This rule effectively places the observer in continuous contact with the system.

We criticize and generalize some properties of Nöther charges presented in a paper by V. Iyer and R. M. Wald and their application to entropy of black holes. The first law of black holes thermodynamics is proven for any gauge-natural field theory. As an application charged Kerr-Newman solutions are considered. As a further example we consider a (1 + 2) black hole solution. 1

We show that the entanglement between inner and outer particles, with respect to the event horizon, is the microscopic origin of the black hole entropy. Due to the non-unitarity of the mapping between the vacua in the flat and the curved frames, this entanglement is very robust. The holographic nature of the entropy is recovered in a quantum field theoretical setting, and it is shown that, at m...
